Rock Chuck Huntin'

This was always my little break when I was either making dinner or needed to get something done-Justin would take the kids to get a treat at the gas station on a rhino ride & then go rock chuck hunting only a few miles from our house! The kids loved it. They accidentally shot a baby one & the kids of course thought that was even cooler. Justin lets Carter pull the trigger. This little guy is going to be one avid hunter by the time he is old enough to actually hunt & I think we'll even be able to get Tenley into hunting too :) I have a feeling she is going to be just a tad bit of a tom boy- especially with this big brother of hers!!!

Easter Egg Hunt!

Oh my! The kids were so cute at the hunt this year! Carter had to wear his "fast Jordans" :) Corbin {Carter's best little bud} met up with us, so he was pumped & getting a plan set up, he ran out into the middle first..It was crazy to me how Tenley knew exactly what to do, she didn't hesitate for a second. She ran right out there & got surprisingly quite a few eggs all by herself! Carter came back with an overflowing basket, he had SO many! He got about 8 raffle tickets, 20 free ice creams & they both got tons of candy!
 Then the boys took advantage of the jump houses while we listened to raffle drawing numbers. Carter won a stuffed Winnie the Pooh, some sidewalk chalk & a baby outfit we gave to the neighbors!

Dying Easter Eggs!

This year dying Easter eggs was intense! Carter was so excited, he got all the cups out & mixed all the tablets in. He of course wanted sports & Tenley chose puppies & kitties. Tenley was a handful. She always wants to help & be as involved as Carter but she wanted to drink the dyed water, crack & eat all the eggs & stick her hands in to grab the eggs out! :) Carters favorite part was blow drying the sports balls onto the eggs, & burming dad's hand he thought that was hilarious. Cub gets really into holidays now & making his stuff "perfect" By the time we were done Carter had his carton full of perfect eggs,a certain egg for each of us & Tenley had eaten all but 2 of hers :)
Still trying to figure out this new blogger layout, I obviously haven't blogged in quite sometime :)
